I watched Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives recently. It's beautifully shot and the acting is pretty good. It has some interesting ideas and some parts play out a bit like a horror film but, overall, I wasn't blown away. It has that arthouse issue where sometimes the characters sit for a bit, walk leisurely to the next nicely framed shot, and sit down again. I don't want to slam the film too much as there were things I liked in there but I wouldn't watch it again in a hurry.
